Headline Performance Measures

Progress 8.

In 2016 the Department for Education changed how schools are measured in terms of the progress students make between Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 4 The 5 GCSEs at grades A*-C including maths and English has been discontinued and schools are not given a Progress 8 Score. This score takes into account how students perform across eight subjects not just five and compares this performance with similar students nationally. A school’s Progress 8 Score will be between -1 and +1. The minimum expected standard by the Government is -0.5.

For 2016 Beamont Collegiate Academy’s Progress 8 Score is: -0.07 which places the academy in-line with 40% of other schools nationally and in-line with national average performance.
